I wanna go BM but Marksmanship elites are to fuuuuuuuunn.
R/W
best of both worlds, as far as I'm concerned:
Druid's Suit, mainly because it looks cool!
Skills:
Sever Artery, Gash, Serpent's Quickness, Dust Trap, Barbed Trap, Flame Trap, Apply Poison, Troll's Unguent.
This one works fine with Heroes and henchies, as long as you keep them out of aggro during the trapping bit. Use that flag!
Here we go:
- SQ, then place one or two lines of traps, behind each other; a minefield, so to speak.
- Apply Poison;
- Lure the mob with a longbow, then step back, all the way to where the flag is; release the Heroes and henchies. Watch your trapping handy work go off! Fun!
- Switch to Poisonous Flamberge, change to tank, basically;
- Clear the mob. No problem, but:
- If necessary, trap offensively, Dust Trap first.
Same tactics with a PuG, then I leave the Dust Trap home, and bring the Rez Sig.
Much harder though, mainly because not much group members get the idea of trapping, and go in for some good old slashing, while the trapping work is not even remotely finished. In those cases, I stand back and try to protect the casters and healers with small minefields...
Try it! It works really well!![]()

Apply Poison/Burning Arrow/Screaming Shot build
or
Barrage/Savage/Distracting
Other skills tend to change depending on location, most of the time
Rez/Sunspear Signet - Troll Unguent - Whirling Defense - Cap sig/Lightning Reflexes - Throw Dirt
Build I use on Hero Rangers most of the time:
Magebane Shot/Broadhead Arrow
Savage Shot
Distracting Shot
Leech Signet
Lightning Reflexes
Disrupting Accuracy
Troll Unguent
Rez Signet
Depending on BHA, higher Expertise or not. They interrupt so nicely with this build :) BHA on the Drought and fully targetting him and he could even use a single spell. Didn't even need Winter to get masters then.
Having fun with this:
exp 16/Marks 13/slop in wilderness
Burning arrow, penetrating, sundering, distracting, apply poison, fav winds, whirling def, res
Using flatbow so I can keep my distance from the demons. I can spam bow attacks until the cows come home. My companion in the wilderness is often an illusionist mesmer using fragility - so the fact that burning and poison have a shorter duration is fully intentional :D
Edit: Oh the whirling spot I sometimes take unguent - though I find in Torment that if I am in enough trouble to need unguent, I am just prolonging my misery (and slowed down, and spiked)...however evasion I find does save my life and allow me to flee.
